My work is essentially a representation of my right brain/ left brain having a conversation. In recent years, my work has lead further into the exploration of abstract expressionism to best convey my perception. There’s no blueprint or foregone conclusion in place, but only to be present during the process. The intention is the process itself. Having studied graphic design, my mind still wants to find a way to form a right angle, or an even a perfect curve to round off an undefined paint stroke or mark.This has been a predominant approach for my work overall. I'm also the co-founder of The Art Cave, a start-up gallery on the west side of SC, and this has already been a large muse for my work. (artcavesc.com) Whatever the outcome, it is the process of developing the finished product where I feel the most alive. Taking my inspiration and creating it into something I hope others can find inspiration from is when I believe I have really 'made it.' Cheers. -LE
